Gradient correction and Bohm potential for two‐ and one‐dimensional electron gases at a finite temperature

Abstract: From the static polarization function of electrons in the random phase approximation, the quantum Bohm potential for the quantum hydrodynamic description of electrons and the density gradient correction to the Thomas–Fermi free energy at a finite temperature for the two‐ and one‐dimensional cases are derived. The behaviour of the Bohm potential and of the density gradient correction as a function of the degeneracy parameter is discussed. Based on recent developments in the fluid description of quantum plasmas,… Show more

“…For these low-dimensional configurations, the closure relations for the quantum pressure (Bohm potential) are fundamentally different from the 3D case, and the resulting dispersion relations are different too. These issues were discussed in a recent work [58].…”

“…Also, we have [16] σ=italicie2n0ω1me1ω2αq2+1mi1ω2, where e is the element charge, m e ( m i ) is the electron (ion) mass, α=vF2/2 (that is square of the speed of propagation of the density disturbances in a 2D Fermi electron plasma) and v F = ℏ k F / m e and kF=2πn0 are electron Fermi speed and electron Fermi wave number in the 2D electron plasma layer, respectively [17]. We note that the general form of Equation (6) contains the contribution of the quantum diffraction (quantum Bohm) effect [18,19]. However, as mentioned in Ref.…”

“…Based on the linearized QHD theory, the electronic excitations of the system can be described by the continuity equation tnxt+ne0xvxxt=0, and the momentum balance equation tvxxt=emexΦα2nnormale0xnxt+γβ2nnormale0xitalicxxnxt, where m e is the electron mass, and Φ is the self‐consistent potential. On the right‐hand side of Equation , the first term is the force on an electron due to the electric field, the second term is the quantum statistical effects, which is the force due to the internal interactions in the electron species, and the third term is the quantum diffraction effects coming from the quantum pressure.…”
